SQL Injection in KiviCare Clinic & Patient Management System

Publication date: 2026-07-11

Last updated on: 2026-07-11

Assigner: Wordfence

Description
The KiviCare – Clinic & Patient Management System (EHR) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to generic SQL Injection via the 'orderby' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 4.5.0 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Doctor-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database. Exploitation requires a KiviCare Doctor, Receptionist, or Clinic Admin role at minimum, as the vulnerable REST endpoint is restricted to authenticated users with custom plugin-level access.

CWE ID Description
CWE-89 The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.

Executive Summary

The KiviCare – Clinic & Patient Management System (EHR) plugin for WordPress has a generic SQL Injection vulnerability in the 'orderby' parameter in all versions up to and including 4.5.0. This vulnerability arises because the plugin does not properly escape user-supplied input and does not sufficiently prepare the existing SQL query.

Authenticated users with Doctor-level access or higher can exploit this flaw by appending additional SQL queries to the existing ones, potentially extracting sensitive information from the database.

Exploitation requires at least a KiviCare Doctor, Receptionist, or Clinic Admin role, as the vulnerable REST endpoint is restricted to authenticated users with these custom plugin-level access rights.

Compliance Impact

The vulnerability allows authenticated users with certain roles to perform SQL Injection attacks that can extract sensitive information from the database.

Such unauthorized access to sensitive patient data could potentially lead to non-compliance with data protection regulations like GDPR and HIPAA, which require strict controls to protect personal and health information.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can allow authenticated users with certain roles to extract sensitive information from the database by injecting malicious SQL queries.

Since the vulnerability affects an Electronic Health Record (EHR) system, the exposure of sensitive patient data could lead to privacy breaches and unauthorized data disclosure.

The CVSS base score of 6.5 indicates a medium severity impact, with high confidentiality impact but no impact on integrity or availability.
